LingerTerminateTimerInterval and LingerDisconnectTimerInterval

Using Workspace Control, the Citrix functionality Session Lingering is also possible for Citrix XenApp 7.x on 64-bit operating systems.

To enable Session Lingering for Citrix XenApp 7.x, configure the following registry settings:

  • LingerTerminateTimerInterval

  • LingerDisconnectTimerInterval

LingerTerminateTimerInterval

Create the following DWORD (32-bit) value to configure Workspace Control to ensure that Citrix sessions linger for the specified number of minutes after the last published Citrix application is closed in a user session. After the specified time passes, the Citrix session is terminated.

Key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RES\Workspace Manager

Value

LingerTerminateTimerInterval

Type

REG_DWORD

Data

<number of minutes> (1-999)

If both registry settings are configured, ensure than the value for LingerTerminateTimerInterval is greater than the value for LingerDisconnectTimerInterval.

LingerDisconnectTimerInterval

Create the following DWORD (32-bit) value to configure Citrix sessions to linger for the specified number of minutes after the last published Citrix application is closed in a user session. After the specified time passes, the Citrix session is disconnected.

Key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RES\Workspace Manager

Value

LingerDisconnectTimerInterval

Type

REG_DWORD

Data

<number of minutes> (1-999)

  • The registry setting LingerDisconnectTimerInterval works only when used together with LingerTerminateTimerInterval.

  • Ensure than the value configured for LingerDisconnectTimerInterval is lesser than the value for LingerTerminateTimerInterval.

Known Limitations

Lingering Citrix XenApp applications started by Workspace Control do not show the status lingering on the Citrix server. This is caused by the way Workspace Control starts Citrix published applications.
